Review files you name
Turn on Review files you name in Speechy's Settings. When you dictate the name of a file that's shown in a chat or email window on your Mac, Speechy finds files with that name and opens a small window so you can check which one and where it lives before you attach it. Nothing is attached or sent automatically.
